INSTALLATION AND SETTING UP SPOTLIGHT
THE XENON GLADIATOR IV is shipped in sections which must be assembled. Lifting
straps on the yoke assembly permit completely assembling the spotlight on the floor and later hoisting it to an
elevated position.
ASSEMBLE THE FOUR BASE LEGS to the lower square section of the base column using
the 3/8-16 x 2-3/4 inch hex head cap screws and lockwashers provided. Insert a leveling foot and locknut in
each of the four leg brackets and level the base before continuing the installation.
WHEN INSTALLED in a permanent location, the casters and leveling feet must be removed,
and the clearance holes in the base leg brackets used for hardware (user supplied) to bolt the base to the floor
or platform. If it is desired to have the unit portable, when operating, the leveling feet must be adjusted down
until the weight of the spotlight has been shifted from the casters to the leveling feet.
THE INNER TUBE of the support yoke has three holes to permit adjusting the height of the
spotlight. The three holes are on four-inch centers and will allow an optical height of approximately 53 inches,
57 inches, and 61 inches above floor level to the optical center of the lamphouse and lens system. Insert the
height location pin through the hole in the outer tube and one of the holes in the inner tube. The leveling feet
may be adjusted through an additional two-inch range.
THE HORIZONTAL SWING and vertical tilt locking knobs are on the right hand (operating)
side of the yoke assembly. Level the yoke and tighten both of these locking devices securely before attempting
to place the lamphouse and lens system on the support yoke.
PLACE THE LAMPHOUSE and lens system on the yoke assembly, with the spot size con-
trol handle to the right hand (operating) side, the same as the locking controls on the yoke. Line up the four
tapped (5/16-18) mounting holes in the bottom of the base rail mounting bracket with the four mating holes
in the support yoke and secure using the four 5/16-18 wing screws. Note the mounting holes are slotted to
allow fine adjustment for balancing the spotlight.
ATTACH THE LAMPHOUSE CABLE CONNECTOR to the mating receptacle on the power
supply. The lamphouse and power supply connectors are keyed for correct pin alignment; make certain pins
are seated before tightening the locking ring. DO NOT energize the xenon power supply before the xenon
bulb is correctly installed into the lamphouse.
